Tang Yu is different from everyone else—he can see the attribute panels of every person around him. Each panel contains six attributes, with a maximum score of 10 per attribute.
His childhood friend A has three attributes at 9.
His senior B has four attributes at 9.
His boyfriend C has five attributes at 9.
As for Tang Yu…
Except for having 10 in Charm, all his other attributes—intelligence included—are just 5.
Because of his excessively high Charm value, Tang Yu constantly attracts all sorts of bizarre people.
Even his childhood friend, senior, and boyfriend are becoming increasingly strange (perverted)…
Until one day, a mechanical voice suddenly chimed in his head:
“Countdown to the launch of Anomaly Resurgence: 3, 2, 1. Game start.”
Tang Yu looked up in confusion, only to see a crowd of people with player panels gleefully logging in.

Anomaly Resurgence is a wildly popular full-immersion horror game. Upon discovering the breathtakingly beautiful NPC named Tang Yu, players eagerly cast a scan on him—and saw his stats.
Players: “What a pretty face. Let’s ditch him and simp over a better NPC.”
So they turned their attention to the high-powered NPC A…
Panel: “A is secretly in love with Tang Yu.”
Then they moved on to the even stronger NPC B…
Panel: “B is secretly in love with Tang Yu.”
Then they found the OP NPC C…
Panel: “C openly loves Tang Yu.”
(Note: Increasing favorability with Tang Yu also raises favorability with A, B, and C.)
Players: “!!!”
Players: “He’s not just a pretty face—he’s basically our long-lost father!”
Only a few players stubbornly refused to simp for any of the big shots.
But just as they were about to level up, someone accidentally scanned the panel of an Evil God—
Panel: “Evil God is fond of Tang Yu.”
All players collectively jolted in shock.
Their inner simp spirits broke free from their bodies.
Tang Yu: “Weird things have been showing up more and more lately… sob”

Tang Yu: a background NPC.
He watched helplessly as his childhood friend, senior, and boyfriend all turned into monsters one by one.
He witnessed the rise of the “Anomaly Resurgence” and the players entering the game.
He is but a speck of gravel clinging to a towering cliff, silently observing the clash of two overwhelming forces.
But maybe the wind was too wild that day… and it dislodged that tiny speck.
And so, he leapt from the towering structure—
From a mere NPC, he briefly became a rogue player running free—
And unlocked the only true ending: saving the world.
